My old computer fried and died. How can i find all the songs I previously downloaded?

I lost all the data on my old hard drive. I downloaded the newest version of i tunes for my new computer. Now how can i re download all the songs I previously purchased? Thanks for helping

It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for just such an occasion.  us eyour backup copy to put everything back.
If for some reason you have failed to backup, then you can transfer itunes purchases from an ipod:  File>Transfer Purchases.
In the U.S you can use icloud.  Open itunes store, click Purchased under Quick Links.

  • How can i find all the songs that deleted from my nano 6th gen after updating?  It deleted them out of my itunes library as well

    When I updated my Mom's Ipod Nano 6th generation it deleted all the songs in one playlist and then deleted them off my main computer.  How can I restore these songs without having to repurchase them?

  • Why has iTunes seperated a album which I have copied over from my external hard drive into iTunes? How can you pull all the songs back together into one album again?

    Why has iTunes seperated a album into indevidual songs, which I have copied over from my external hard drive into iTunes? How can you pull all the songs back together into one album again?

    Quick answer:  Select all the tracks on the album, File > get info, and either give them all a single "album artist", or check the "compilation" flag (as in https://discussions.apple.com/message/17670085).
    If these are from multiple-CD sets you may also need to enter the appropriate information in the disc number fields.  If they are not a multiple CD set you still need to make sure the disc number fields are set correctly or all empty.

    Please help
    Songs that you purchase from the iTunes Store are simply files.  They only sit on the computer where you purchase them, until you copy them to another computer.
    That is how it works.  There is no web site where you can play all your files.  It's primitive I know, but there may be changes coming.

  • My Top Rated songs, when I synch my iP4S - comes up with an error message saying it can't find all the songs. When I check, library has songs listed but with a "!" bubble next to them. When I click on them they play. What am I doing wrong?

    When synching, itcomes up with an error message saying it can't find all the songs. When I check, library has songs listed but with a "!" bubble next to them. When I click on them they play. What am I doing wrong? This happens every time so I click them and it sorts them (boring with 200 odd). How can I prevent this?

    Once you successfully add you iTunes library to iTunes Match, you go to Settings>iTunes & App Store on your iOS device and turn on iTunes Match.  Your iTunes Match library will then appear on your iOS device.

  • My computer with my original library has crashed, how can i keep all the songs on my iphone, but still add new songs from my new library?

    My computer has died and will not be working ever again. Problem is, i have all of my songs on that computer in my itunes library as well as on my phone. Now i want to add some songs to my phone from some new cds and it tells me i will loose all my songs on my phone right now when i perform the sync. How can i keep all of the songs on my iphone because now i do not have copies of these songs anymore except on my iphone?????? From what i have read, itunes is a joke because it only goes one way apparently. Not happy with itunes right now, more then a bit of a joke

    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for this very occasion.  Use your backup copy of your computer to put everything on the new one.
    If for some reason you have failed to backup, big mistake, then you can transfer itunes purchases from the iphone to the computer:  File>Transfer Purchases
    You may be able to buy a 3rd party program to get any other music off of the iphone ( not supported by Apple).
    When you sync the iphone, it will erase the current content and replace with content form the new computer.
    "Not happy with itunes right now, more then a bit of a joke"
    Not itunes fault that you did not do the very basics and maintain a backup copy.

  • How can I play all the songs in one genre in iOS7's music app?

    Suppose you want to listen to only blues music. In the music app in iOS 7 I can't find a way to select all the songs from one genre. When you select "genre" it takes you to a list of artist in that genre but there's no way to select all the songs. In previous iOS all you had to do was select "all artist" and then "play all songs". In iOS 7 I can't seem to find that option. I've tried using Siri but if the genre of music you have is not in English then Siri won't understand. Also Siri only works if it's connected to a network. What if your not connected and you want to listen to just Blues. Is this option not in the music app in iOS 7 or am I over looking something?

    Found the workaround... you are correct, this option was available in prior versions and now it is not.
    In any Music app view scroll to the top to unveil the search box.
    Search for your genre.
    Search results will show all artists matching your query, and if you scroll above that there is a 'Shuffle All Songs' option.

  • How can I play all the songs on an album in my wish list?

    In a previous version of iOS, I could click on an album in my wish list, then click to preview all the songs in the album consecutively. I seem to have lost this option now.  I am using iOS8.

    Hi there - don't know what is happening on your Touch as it does play albums in order - when you click on an album to play it, the very first option is shuffle - make sure you do not click on this - but click on the first track name.
    If you have clicked on it once - it seems to stay on - to solve/check this - click on a song, and wait for the cover to come into view. On the top bar, on the right hand side while the song is playing - you will see the little shuffle icon (arrows crossing). If this is blue then shuffle is selected. Click on it to turn it off (white). Now go back to the album lists and all should be in order?
    Let us know if this works.

  • I have a fifth gen Ipod and have changed computers. I was not able to transfer all the music over when I created an itunes account on the new computer. How can I save all the songs on my ipod and upload new ones? It wants to sync with my new account.

    I have a fifth gen ipod classic. I switched computers and was not able to transfer the songs and pictures over. When I connect my ipod to the computer it wants to sync with it which would delete all my songs and music. Is there a way around this?

  • I lost my laptop I didn't back up and I just bought a new one .How can I get all the songs I bought in itunes store back to my new laptop??

    can someone help me please?
    I lost my laptop on Monday and I didn't back up. I just bought a new macbook air so I know I have to install all my applications and softwares again but I was told I could get my old itunes library I mean all the music I bought back in my new laptop. can someone tell me how to do it or if I can?

    Sorry, but officially Apple does not allow redownloads of purchased items other than iPhone/iPod touch applications and iBooks. It's your responsibility to make backup copies (as iTunes itself advises) in case something goes wrong with your system, as unfortunately it apparently did in your case, and you lose all the information on your hard drive. The official statement of their policy can be found here, among other places.
    For apps, look here for instructions on redownloading.  For songs, movies, and videos, if you don't have a backup of your purchased items, either on external media or another computer and don't have them on an iOS device (iPhone, iPod touch, iPad), you're probably out of luck and will need to repurchase your content.
    If you have your content on an iOS device, post back and someone here can help you get them restored. Otherwise you can try contacting iTunes Store Customer Service (select the "Music Purchases" or "Video Purchases" category, as appropriate, then "Lost or Missing Items". You'll find either an "Express Lane" button - just follow the instructions to get to the contact form - or an "Email Us" button) ") and explaining what happened. Reportedly in some cases Apple has allowed redownloading on a one-time basis. But don't count on it. 
    Regards.

  • I can't get my itunes playlists to sync now that I had to get new computer.  My library is still there and the playlists show and I can even add to my playlists. But as soon as it goes to sync it says it can't find all the songs that used to be there.

    I can't get my itunes playlists to sync now that I had to get a new computer.  They all appear in my library and show in my playlists.  I can even download new songs from the itunes store to those playlists but when it syncs only the new songs go on the ipod.  It says it can't find any of my "old" songs and puts an exclamation mark beside them.  I am clueless when it comes to these things.  Advice please!  We have three ipods on this account trying to figure it out.

    You can only sync to one computer.
    You would have to transfer purchases, but the apple ID would need to be the same.
    Or find a 3rd party app to transfer content.

  • How can I find all the silences above 2 sec.?

    Hi everybody,

    How can I do that in Audition 1.5?
    Thanks a lot for your help;
